Your answers are right now. But I think the document is the Declaration of Independence.
Sorry about that, thank you :]
To answer the first question, "Conductors" on the railroad referred to people who guided escaped slaves to free northern states. To get this answer, you would need to know about the history of the Underground Railroad and the role that conductors played in helping slaves escape to freedom.
For the second question, the famous document that Lincoln alludes to in the first sentence of his speech is The United States Constitution. To discover this, you would need to be familiar with Lincoln's Gettysburg Address and understand the historical context and references within it.
The answer to the third question, "The object won, and brought safely to shore is the Emancipation Proclamation, and the safety of our Union?" is true. To determine this, you would need knowledge of the Emancipation Proclamation, which was an executive order issued by President Abraham Lincoln during the American Civil War. Its purpose was to declare freedom for all enslaved people in the Confederate states.
Lastly, Walt Whitman compares our Civil War to "a dreadful journey." To find this answer, you would need familiarity with Whitman's works, specifically his poem "O Captain! My Captain!" where he uses this comparison to convey the horror and tragedy of the American Civil War.
